Love without Condition
Mark 1:40-45

Do you realize that the only time we like to get old is when we are kids? "I'm four and a half." You're never 36 and a half...but you were four and a half going on five. In our teens we live for the future. "I'm going to be 16. You could be 12, but you're gonna be 16. Then that great day of your life comes...you become 21. Then you turn 30. Sounds like spoiled milk. He turned 30. You become 21. We turn 30. Then you're pushing 40. You reach 50. Then you make it to 60. By then you've built up so much speed you HIT 70. After that it's a day by day thing. You HIT Wednesday. You get into your 80s; you HIT lunch. And it doesn't end there. Into the 90s you start to go backwards. "I was just 92." If you make it over 100, you become a kid again. "I'm a 100 and a half." No matter how young or old you are, Jesus Christ reaches you without condition. God loves you without condition.
